Our Mexico Vacation

We spent 2 weeks in Mexico this fall and had a wonderful time with Ernesto's family and visiting sites.
Our vacation started in Oregon, went through Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico to Central Mexico. Yes, we drove ... or should I say Ernesto drove [all 8000 miles!]
The first picture is one of my favorites at the Grand Canyon. The second is of Melinda & me waiting for the sun to set at the Grand Canyon.

Melinda & me -- we are helping with the decorations for the anniversary party at the salon. In Ojocalientes, MexicoLeft to right: Ernesto, E's mom, E's dad & Melinda at the Party!



Waiting for the Gondola - Mt. Bufa in Zacatecas, Mexico.
Below is the Gondola. Left to Right -- Robert [E's nephew], Tyler, Melinda, Ernesto & Bill]



One of our best days! This is the view from a little hotel up in the mountains, in the small town of Real de Catorce. A relaxing spot, near the end of our vacation!

4th of July

We had a great Fourth with the family here, we missed Tyler though.


Jacob, just relaxing...


Destiny enjoying a snow cone...they were so needed as the day's temps almost reached 100.


The area churches put on the fireworks, the food & the entertainment. We had hot dogs, corn on the cob, watermelon, snow cones, cotton candy & drinks.



The kids entertained themselves and us!







The fireworks are amazing for our small town.

SPRING IS HERE!!

FINALLY...spring is here! First were the daffodils, then the vultures were back...and the geese...and today there were blossoms in the wild plum trees on the way home!
I'm tired of all the snow! We sure had our fair share this winter.
Loved the couple of sunny days we had this week.
We had a potluck at work today...for St. Patrick's Day. On the menu: reuban sand., irish potato salad, lime jello, sherbert and st pat cookies. It was very good!

Catching Up

The stress level has been high at our house for the past couple of months. We have learned alot about prostate cancer. Bill's biopsy results came back today ... he's negative.
Will try and post pics from Christmas, we had a great time at Melinda & Ernie's.
Spent my time tonight, printing the paper and trying to find a new background for this blog. Can't figure out the centering on the header though. I will keep trying!
